Hi,

I have more that 9 serial ports on my machine, some real, some virtual.

When I recently tried to open /dev/ttyS21 it failed. Is this :

  some inbuilt limit?

  some problem with cygwin not seeing some serial ports?

  some action required by me to add more ports?


In Windows, doing 'mode com22' works fine.

Any ideas?

regards,
ahnkle
